Head Explodes in MRI Machine _ House M.D. _ MD TV

I didn't expect House to beg me to stay, but it seems like he's in a better mood since I quit. Nothing in the axial view. You haven't asked me why I'm leaving. I figured you'd tell me when you wanted to. I don't want to be like him. You're not a jerk. I mean, sometimes you are, but I don't think we can pin that on House. You're a better doctor than when you came through the door. Better at some things, worse at others. Again, not House's fault. It's a job. I'm supposed to take the good and leave the bad. It's easier for you. Why? Because you think I need to toughen up? You think I'm weak? Yeah. See? I am a jerk. What's wrong, Addy? My head hurts. Brain's clean. No tumor and no abscess. What went wrong? My head. Grody. Looks like massive tissue death. Who cares? My head blew up. How cool is that? It's not pussy. Meaning you don't think it's an infection. And you'd be right if you weren't wrong. Here we go again. She's got infections that come and go, which means... It means it has to be something else. Good guess, but no. It means either she's got a leprechaun in her colon, she's playing with the doggy door, letting bacteria in and out, or she's got compliment factor H deficiency. Are you enjoying this? I'm saving a woman's life. Actually, I'm diagnosing her. Technically, I'm diagnosing her with something that's going to kill her, but other than that, I am saving her life. An autoimmune problem makes more sense. You can't explain transudated pleural effusion with giant cell autorites. You'd need three whiteboards and 100 different colored markers. No, it's much more likely she has an invisible protein that allowed bacteria to arbitrarily invade her lungs, then arbitrarily invade her pleura, then arbitrarily jump into her head. If it's autoimmune, she can live, but we have to give her steroids now before her heart ruptures. If you're wrong and you give her steroids, she dies now. Foreman, you want to run down how it feels to go with your gut and kill a person? You can get into the whole spiraling out of control, self-doubt, resigning thing. Do it. Worst that can happen is you quit. Cameron, you want to explain to the parents why you'll be holding paddles while he's doing it? Because if her heart goes boom, it'll boom right away.
